Chapter 773 Proud Cold City (3)
“See me? Do I know him?” Leng Ruoxue blinked her beautiful watery eyes and asked curiously.
“Erm… Probably not!” Leng Wudi said uncertainly after some thought. “Oh! I won’t see you then. Grandpa said not to meet strangers,” Leng Ruoxue said obediently.
Darling granddaughter! You wronged me again! When did I say such things! Leng Qingtian, who was innocently shot, looked at his granddaughter resentfully, feeling depressed.
“He’s not a stranger.” Leng Wudi was angry.
“Anyone I don’t know is considered a stranger,” Leng Ruoxue said matter-of-factly. Then she gave her subordinates a look and everyone left tacitly.
Leng Wudi hurriedly followed…
Half a month later.
In an uninhabited forest.
Leng Ruoxue’s beautiful face was full of depression as she glared at the innocent Leng Wudi and asked helplessly, “Young Master Leng, how long do you want to follow me for?”
She had been depressed for the past half a month because Leng Wudi would follow them wherever they went. She found it strange that she couldn’t shake him off. He might not be able to keep up with Feng Wu, but he would appear by their side in a few hours.
“I will always follow you unless you return to the Leng family with me,” Leng Wudi said fearlessly.
“The Leng family is powerful and influential. A small character like me is really not suitable to appear,” Leng Ruoxue declined very implicitly, even though it had been countless times. “You are a small character? Then wouldn’t I be inferior to even dust?” Leng Wudi said with self-ridicule. In the Boundless Heaven Continent now, whoever dared to think that Leng Ruoxue was an unknown small character, he was the first to be anxious with that person. Alas! Compared to Leng Ruoxue and the others, he was probably that small character! “How can that be? You are the young master of the Leng family, one of the three major families,” Leng Ruoxue said very seriously.
“Leng Ruoxue, there are no outsiders here anyway. Why don’t you kill me to silence me? Otherwise, I definitely won’t give up,” Leng Wudi said very resolutely.
“Xue’er, let’s go since Young Master Leng insists on us going back with him!” Leng Qingtian couldn’t take it anymore and sighed helplessly.
“Xue’er, your grandfather agreed,” Leng Wudi said casually
“Alright!” Leng Ruoxue nodded helplessly. After all, it was not good for Leng Wudi to keep pestering them like this.
“Let’s go now!” Leng Wudi said impatiently. How could he still have the composed image of a noble young master with his anxious appearance now! To be precise, his good image had long disappeared in front of Leng Ruoxue and the others!
“What’s the rush? We just had lunch,” Leng Ruoxue said speechlessly.
“Alright then!” Leng Wudi answered softly. Boohoo… He really didn’t have any status as the young master of the Leng family in front of these people! Soon, Leng Ruoxue and the others finished their meal and reluctantly followed Leng Wudi to the main city of the Leng family, Proud Cold
City…
They finally arrived at their destination after flying for nearly ten days.
Standing outside the tall and grand city walls of Proud Cold City, Leng Wudi asked with a face full of pride, “How is it? Our Leng family’s main city is not bad, right?”
“So-so,” Leng Ruoxue said without giving him any face.
“You’ll know that it’s extraordinary once you enter,” Leng Wudi said mentally prepared.
“Oh! Then let’s go in quickly! I’m sleepy,” Leng Ruoxue urged. “Let’s go in!” Leng Wudi said helplessly. Alas! He had been pestering them for nearly a month and had more or less understood Leng Ruoxue’s habits, so he was already used to it.
“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue and the others nodded and then entered Proud Cold City with Leng Wudi.
Proud Cold City was very prosperous. People came and went on the streets. Moreover, pedestrians greeted Leng Wudi very warmly when they saw him, and his signature smile hung on Leng Wudi’s beautiful face.
“What a two-faced person.” Leng Ruoxue looked at Leng Wudi and murmured softly. This fellow was a scoundrel in front of them, but in front of these citizens, he was so gentle, noble, and perfect. “In Proud Cold City, my every move represents the Leng family.” Leng Wudi smiled bitterly after hearing Leng Ruoxue’s words. Boohoo… It was so easy to be a young master! “I know. Find us a inn!” Leng Ruoxue reminded.
“No need. I’ve already arranged your residence,” Leng Wudi said proudly.
“I don’t live in the Leng family,” Leng Ruoxue said.
“Okay.” Leng Wudi nodded and then brought Leng Ruoxue and the others to a yard.
Leng Ruoxue looked up at the plaque outside the yard. There were two words engraved on it: Plum Garden.
After entering the ‘Plum Garden’, Leng Ruoxue was surprised to find that this Plum Garden was indeed as its name suggested. It was planted with all sorts of plum blossoms, and the air in the yard was even suffused with the fragrance of the plum blossoms. Not only that, every building in the garden was exquisite to the point of breathtaking, absolutely worthy of being called a work of art!
“Are you satisfied with this place?” Leng Wudi asked calmly as he looked at the expressions of Leng Ruoxue and the others.
“It’s okay,” Leng Ruoxue replied softly. For some reason, looking at the grass, wood, scenery, and things here made her feel a sense of deja vu. Was this too strange?
“It’s good that you’re satisfied. Have a good rest today. I’ll visit you tomorrow,” Leng Wudi said very thoughtfully. After speaking, he was about to leave when he heard a familiar voice outside the door. His heart couldn’t help skipping a beat, and a bad premonition followed…
“Third Brother, how can you let an outsider stay in the Plum Garden?” An angry and unruly voice sounded in Leng Ruoxue and the others’ ears. However, everyone was so calm that they didn’t even turn their heads, still looking at the beautiful scenery in the garden with their backs facing her.
“Rumei, this is my business. When did I need you to tell me what to do?” Leng Wudi’s face turned cold and he said with some displeasure.
